Strengths: Makes great ice cream that refreezes well.

Weaknesses: Poor material in motor and gear setup. Annoyingly loud. You absolutely cannot have a conversation in the same room with this beast. Bucket is made with cheap soft-wood, not cedar.

Summary: I've had two of these. I purchased the first one in 2007 and it made maybe 20 batches of ice cream before the gears stripped out on the motor. I bought another one. The replacement motor is $150, while the entire 4 qt outfit is $169. Bought the full outfit, for a spare bucket and cannister. This one stripped out the gears during the second batch of ice cream. White Mountain is obviously putting inferior parts in their motors. Will not purchase another one.
